Kwelera River is a nature lover's delight

This photo was taken a bit upriver from the mouth of Kwelera River, near East London, in South Africa - about 2km or so, upriver.  It is near the Kwelera River mouth that the 16km (10 miles) Surfers Marathon Coastal Challenge starts each year.  Yellow Sands beach is on the opposite side of the river mouth.  Glen Gariff is not far along the coast, from the mouth either.  Just a little downriver from these cliffs in this photo, one finds Areena Riverside Resort.

This is the perfect area for abseiling, tubing, canoeing, fishing, hiking, bird watching, swimming and more! 

Giraffe at Areena Riverside Resort, East London

Tony and this tall but still young giraffe get to know each other at Areena Resort, East London.  Areena Riverside Resort is on the East Coast Resorts Road just outside East London, on the Jikeleza route, and is a super riverside resort for the whole family.  Spend a day - or a few days - at Areena, on the Kwelera River, canoeing, fishing, bird watching, swimming in the river or pool, braaing, or jumping on the trampoline!  This giraffe is not the only wildlife at Areena, so why not get on a quad bike to go exploring and visit the other wildlife at Areena too?  Areena is also a great spot for conferences, corporate team building events, or tasty meals at the delightful restaurant overlooking the Kwelera river.
